This spectacular group of dancers, resplendent in their authentic 18th century style costumes, revisits St. Mary’s to entertain us in the elegant setting of our Music Room. The group vividly bring to life the unique atmosphere of a typical Assembly Room ball of the Georgian period. Gavottes, minuets, sarabands and bourrées are choreographed in the style of the time. The music of Bach, Handel, Purcell, Lully, and Rameau contribute to the jollity of the occasion. After the interval, members of the audience are invited to join the dancers and try out some of the steps.
